In a large (oven-safe) saute pan over medium-high heat, add oil. Sprinkle both sides of pork chop with salt and pepper. Once oil is hot, add pork chops and cook for three minutes on each side then remove from heat and keep warm.
Add onions and apples to the pan and let cook for three minutes. Reduce heat to medium.
Combine remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl and pour over apples. Let simmer for 3 minutes then return pork chops to pan. Spoon apple mixture over top of pork chops. Cover with lid and transfer to the oven. Cook for 25 minutes
Remove from oven (be careful, handles will be very hot). Remove lid and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
